BIO
Chris Clem is a 6' 5", 280 lb., man-child with blue eyes. He has kissed Meredith Vieira,
won $100,000 on Who Wants to be a Millionaire?, and lost $100,000 by getting married (and
going to multiple WrestleManias). He has appeared on Fox 8 Cleveland, Time Warner Cable's
NEON channel, Kent State's TV2, and is a contributing performer for Up Late with Steve Guy
(UpLate-tv.com). His writing has been featured in Cleveland Scene Magazine, contributing to
their first ever comedy issue in November 2013. He also hosts the Pretty Swell Guys podcast
with Kirk Robinson (PrettySwellGuys.com) and formerly co-hosted Mohammed’s Radio with
Jeremy Sheer (WCSB 89.3 Cleveland), on top of many appearances on radio throughout
northeast Ohio (87.7 WLFM Cleveland, 100.1 WNIR Akron, 98.1 WKDD Akron). Not just a
comedian, Chris has also acted in many short films, been in commercials, done voice over work
for TV, and ring announced pro wrestling cards. None of these credits are that impressive, but
people in his hometown seem to like him.
Clem studied at Second City Detroit's training center, and currently studies improv and
acting in Chicago. He can riff on any subject, and is known for his hilarious stories,
impressions, and obsessions with comic books, professional wrestling, pro sports and movies.
Chris is also ruggedly handsome and an excellent speller with a stupendous vocabulary. (His
wife thinks he’s hot.)
Now permanently based in Chicago, IL, Chris is looking to take his career to the next
level. He’s branching out from the Rust Belt to the entire Midwest in what might be the most
inspirational story since Rocky V. You can book him or find out more information about a
multitude of subjects by visiting ChrisClem.net
